TW: infertility
For those of you who have experienced infertility challenges, first of all, I’m so sorry. My goal is to be a better support to colleagues going through this, and I think often I and others don’t know how to respond in a work setting.
When you had particularly hard moments where you needed work support from your boss/team as you were going through it, what were some of the more supportive reactions or ways your boss/team showed up for you?

What’s your definition of good work ethic? How important is it to you?

I have seen that Some people are seriously demeaning Publicis Sapient looks like they have a personal grudge. I would suggest to connect with your HR and manager in PS or look for right people on LinkedIn.

My annual perf discussion is monday morning. I work on a tough team for a tough place. I think Im a pretty good/almost high performer but only around 3 years and my boss seems to still act like I’m brand new (lifer boomer). I try to tell myself he has 6 direct reports and has to do this with everyone, Im no more or no less special - but I hate these convos and negative feedback even when most of it is unsurprising/fair feedback. Any tips? Just need to get through it! HR people are not immune!

Random question, my boss wants me to become a notary so I can handle notarizing all of the official documents myself. Has anyone else been asked to do this for their employer? Is it ethical?

What should I reasonably expect from a junior?

I manage a junior developer that's been with the company for about 18 months. I end up providing them of TON of support. I need to give them extremely detailed instructions or they fail. For bugs, I need to point them to a specific function that's causing the bug. For new features, I'm basically writing their method signatures and defining their test cases.

I've tried asking them to do more on their own, but when I do, they fail spectacularly.

Lady fish, how do you handle catty women at the office? Another advisor seems out to get me for no reason-she is constantly catty toward me and every single encounter and I want to stand up for myself

Off topic.
Women - what outfits can be considered as business casuals?

Super scared to give me 2 weeks notice .. I might cry or something how do I do it? I LOVE MY BOSS and My team , but I can’t pass on this opportunity.. I’d be really stupid if I did

Hi fishes!

I am seeing too many post about awards like rising star, Kudos, etc. People keep telling there managers recommended them for these awards.
My manager doesn't interact much with us. I consider myself as some one who has worked hard for project and other intiatives. Should I ask my manager to consider me and if yes how should I initiate it.

Thank you.

My coworker has been really cold toward me lately. Doesn't say hi to me in the morning and always declines my lunch invitations. Should I ask if I did something wrong or should I just see if it blows over?

Signed my offer letter with another company. Advice on breaking the news to my long-term SM in the middle of a month-long fire drill?

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?

How do you deal with a Midlevel who tells the partner you’ll cover for them, but gives you less than 24 hours notice they’ll be gone without asking if you can cover? I helped out back on July on a deal with they were on vacation, and now every vacation since they keep adding me back on without keeping me appraised of the deal in the interim

Welcome to a community dedicated to supporting those who deal with or wish to learn more about micro-aggressions. Did you know that 72% of folks are bullied by their managers? 36% of folks end up quitting their job because of bullying.

I’m have a new theory about why juniors always feel like idiots and wanted to see if anyone else thinks this makes sense. I’m a third year, and am the most junior person all of my teams (generally me, a senior or two, and a partner or two), and I always feel like I’m messing something up. Is this just because I never get to work with other juniors and don’t see the mistakes they make, and that it’s relatively normal? And FWIW I went to HYS and I’ve had a clerkship so it’s not like I’m not smart

Just found out I’m staffed in Miami the rest of the year, coming from a much colder climate.

Any favorite tips/tricks for looking professional in heat & humidity?

Team is already talking about eating hours. My utilization is down cause I was in unassigned for a month in Dec/Jan. What's worse pissing off the partner or having a low utilization? -staff 1

I know some of my colleagues are recording their standard fees as time so that it counts towards their billable hours. It infuriates me but am I just being naive by not doing the same?

I’m my partners only associate and I went on parental leave two weeks ago. I feel horrible for leaving him to handle our cases alone, but am trying to focus on my wife and new baby. That being said, should I still offer to handle minor matters that come in to ease the workload off my boss? He’s been super cool during my entire leave, so I don’t feel pressured to one bit.

In Knoxville, TN for a day. Recs for one bottle you'll absolutely suggest? Also the name of the store where I can get that, would be great too! Thank you!

How do youbset boundaries with coworkers. I feel like they won't figure out how to do stuff then I figure it out for them.

Interviewing as a senior 1 position at EY advisory in the Washington DC area. How much should I expect to get salary wise?

Hey so like - newfound reason for my procrastination since I got on Ritalin - a tendency towards "putting things off so I can enjoy the hyperfocus later". When I just started taking the meds I was super effective for a few weeks but now my brain seems to be figuring out ways around the drugs 🤦🏻‍♀️ any ideas on how to not fall back into procrastination behaviours?

Already slept through the first half of the work day. Happy Monday !

Not watch related question but thought it makes sense here. If there’s a separate bowl do let me know. What are your favourite fragrances? I’m thinking of getting Creed Aventus but wondering if it’s worth the price. Thanks all :)

Everytime I’m riding high, getting good work done, my boss has to come in and ruin the mood. Every time. Here’s to spending the rest of my day eating ice cream and watching tv while still working but less than before
